A verdict in Trump's unprecedented second impeachment trial could be rendered as early as Saturday. While House Democrats unanimously voted to impeach, 10 Republicans also agreed, making it the most bipartisan impeachment among the small sample size in U.S. history. Later in the day, Trump in a video address called those who had gathered at the Capitol "patriots." Trump is the first U.S. president to be impeached twice and the first to face trial after leaving office. His first impeachment trial, which stemmed from his efforts to pressure Ukraine to investigate Biden, ended in an acquittal a year ago in what was then a Republican-controlled Senate.
